Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the matters alleged in the enforcement notice have occurred as a matter of fact
- Whether the matters alleged, if they have occurred, amount to a breach of planning control
- Whether the development is immune from enforcement action by virtue of the passage of time
- Whether planning permission should be granted for the storage use and hardstanding
What decided it
The caravans are in a dilapidated condition with no evidence of residential use for a considerable period, demonstrating they are being stored rather than occupied, and the storage use causes moderate harm to the character and appearance of the rural area contrary to the development plan.
